Property Description

Step into a piece of history with the iconic Whitmer House, a two-story treasure nestled in the heart of downtown Goshen. This historic masterpiece effortlessly combines old-world craftsmanship with modern comforts, offering 4 generously sized bedrooms and 2.5 baths. With stunning mahogany woodwork, a graceful rounded stairway, white oak floors, and exquisite mosaic tile accents, every corner of this home speaks of timeless elegance. The inviting vestibule, with its beautifully detailed leaded glass windows, welcomes you inside, where you’ll find pocket doors, a marble vanity, and rich brass electric and gas light fixtures—each detail adding to the home's historic charm. A formal dining room, graced by a hand-painted mural by former owner, Lincoln J. Carter, sets the stage for memorable gatherings. The owner’s suite is a serene retreat, featuring an updated private bath, a dressing room, and a cozy den or private office—perfect for remote work or relaxation. The fully restored front porch serves as the home’s iconic focal point, inviting you to sit back and enjoy the views of your quaint brick driveway, which leads to a carport, further enhancing the home’s curb appeal. But the Whitmer House offers even more: a unique two-unit Carriage House, complete with two fully rented units (a 2-bedroom and a 1-bedroom), ideal for generating income or housing guests and extended family. Situated just steps from downtown, this extraordinary property is an unparalleled opportunity to own a piece of Goshen’s rich history, all while enjoying modern amenities and the potential for rental income.
